Ca: El vent jugava amb les fulles als peus de les majestuoses muntanyes dels Pirineus.
En: The wind played with the leaves at the feet of the majestic Pirineus mountains.

Ca: Era una tardor plena de colors càlids i l'aire fresc de la muntanya omplia els pulmons amb una nova energia.

Ca: La Núria havia arribat aquell cap de setmana amb la intenció de celebrar Tots Sants amb la seva família.

Ca: Quan va arribar, li va donar la benvinguda una escudella casolana.

Ca: A dins, la casa ressonava de rialles i olors familiars de plats tradicionals.
En: Inside, the house resonated with laughter and familiar smells of traditional dishes.

Ca: Tot i així, la Núria es sentia distreta, el seu mòbil no parava de vibrar amb alertes de la feina.
En: Even so, Núria felt distracted; her phone kept vibrating with work alerts.

Ca: L'Adrià, el seu germà petit, sempre havia apreciat les tradicions familiars.
En: Adrià, her younger brother, always appreciated family traditions.

Ca: Mentre ajudava a preparar els panellets, observava la Núria amb preocupació.

Ca: Veia com s'apartava de les converses per respondre trucades importants.
En: He saw how she withdrew from conversations to answer important calls.

Ca: Després d'unes hores, durant el sopar, l'Adrià no va poder contenir-se més.
En: After a few hours, during dinner, Adrià could no longer contain himself.

Ca: "Núria, estàs aquí però no estàs amb nosaltres," va dir amb veu ferma però afectuosa.
En: "Núria, you're here but not with us," he said in a firm yet affectionate voice.

Ca: La resta de la família va aixecar la mirada, esperant la reacció de la Núria.
En: The rest of the family looked up, waiting for Núria's reaction.

Ca: Ella va respirar profundament.
En: She took a deep breath.

Ca: Sabia que l'Adrià tenia raó.
En: She knew Adrià was right.

Ca: Els ulls de la seva àvia li donaven suport i, per un moment, va sentir una calor que li recordava la seva infància.
En: Her grandmother's eyes supported her, and for a moment, she felt a warmth that reminded her of her childhood.

Ca: Va agafar el mòbil i va apagar-lo davant de tots.
En: She took her phone and turned it off in front of everyone.

Ca: "Tens raó, Adrià.
En: "You're right, Adrià.

Ca: Estaré amb vosaltres de veritat.
En: I'll truly be with you all."

Ca: " Les cares van canviar a somriures, i la taula es va omplir d'una alegria renovada.

Ca: L'Adrià la va abraçar i li va dir: "Això és el que realment importa.

Ca: En plena muntanya, les fulles seguien ballant al so del vent com un recordatori que la vida és també un ball, un equilibri entre el treball i la llar.
En: In the heart of the mountains, the leaves continued to dance to the sound of the wind as a reminder that life is also a dance, a balance between work and home.
